A doctor has provided 1 answer
DRYNESS OF SKIN: Dryness of the skin is diagnosed by just looking at it! flakiness is also noticeable. Dry is dry! the skin has no "life." wrinkles appear. Use a good moisgturing cream or lotion. Increase the humidity in the house. Dryness means lack of water; therefore hydrate it. And don't bathe or shower in water that is too hot.
